Description of this paper

Question;Question 1 of 20;1.0 Points;Accepted characters: numbers, decimal;point markers (period or comma), sign indicators (-), spaces (e.g., as;thousands separator, 5 000), "E" or "e" (used in scientific notation). NOTE: For scientific notation, a period MUST be used as the decimal point marker. Complex numbers should be in the form (a + bi) where "a" and "b" need to have explicitly stated values. For example: {1+1i} is valid whereas {1+i} is not. {0+9i} is valid whereas {9i} is not. A;survey of 85 families showed that 36 owned at least one DVD;player. Find the 99% confidence interval estimate of the true proportion;of families who own at least one DVD player. Place your limits, rounded to 3 decimal places, in the blanks. Place the lower limit in the first blank and the upper limit in the second blank;When entering your answer do not use any labels or symbols other than;the decimal point. Simply provide the numerical values. For example;0.123 would be a legitimate entry.;Question 2 of 20;1.0 Points;Accepted characters: numbers, decimal;point markers (period or comma), sign indicators (-), spaces (e.g., as;thousands separator, 5 000), "E" or "e" (used in scientific notation). NOTE: For scientific notation, a period MUST be used as the decimal point marker. Complex numbers should be in the form (a + bi) where "a" and "b" need to have explicitly stated values. For example: {1+1i} is valid whereas {1+i} is not. {0+9i} is valid whereas {9i} is not. A;sample of 9 production managers with over 15 years of experience has an;average salary of $71,000 and a sample standard deviation of $18,000.;Assuming that the salaries of production managers with over 15 years;experience are normally distributed, you can be 95% confident that the;mean salary for all production managers with at least 15 years of;experience is between what two numbers.;Place your LOWER limit, rounded to a whole number, in the first blank.;Do not use a dollar sign, a comma, or any other stray mark. For example;54321 would be a legitimate entry.. Place your UPPER limit, rounded to a whole number, in the second;blank. Do not use a dollar sign, a comma, or any other stray mark. For;example, 65432 would be a legitimate entry.;Question 3 of 20;1.0 Points;Accepted characters: numbers, decimal;point markers (period or comma), sign indicators (-), spaces (e.g., as;thousands separator, 5 000), "E" or "e" (used in scientific notation). NOTE: For scientific notation, a period MUST be used as the decimal point marker. Complex numbers should be in the form (a + bi) where "a" and "b" need to have explicitly stated values. For example: {1+1i} is valid whereas {1+i} is not. {0+9i} is valid whereas {9i} is not. The;manufacturer of a new compact car claims the miles per gallon (mpg) for;the gasoline consumption is mound-shaped and symmetric with a mean of;24.6 mpg and a standard deviation of 11.2 mpg. If 30 such cars are;tested, what is the probability the average mpg achieved by these 30;cars will be greater than 27?;Answer: Round your answer to 4 decimal places as necessary. For example, 0.1357 would be a legitimate entry.;Question 4 of 20;1.0 Points;Accepted characters: numbers, decimal;point markers (period or comma), sign indicators (-), spaces (e.g., as;thousands separator, 5 000), "E" or "e" (used in scientific notation). NOTE: For scientific notation, a period MUST be used as the decimal point marker. Complex numbers should be in the form (a + bi) where "a" and "b" need to have explicitly stated values. For example: {1+1i} is valid whereas {1+i} is not. {0+9i} is valid whereas {9i} is not. The;percent defective for parts produced by a manufacturing process is;targeted at 4%. The process is monitored daily by taking samples of;sizes n = 160 units. Suppose that today?s sample contains 14 defectives.;How many units would have to be sampled to be 95% confident that you can;estimate the fraction of defective parts within 2% (using the;information from today?s sample--that is using the result that)?;Place your answer, as a whole number, in the blank. For example 567 would be a legitimate entry.;Question 5 of 20;1.0 Points;Accepted characters: numbers, decimal;point markers (period or comma), sign indicators (-), spaces (e.g., as;thousands separator, 5 000), "E" or "e" (used in scientific notation). NOTE: For scientific notation, a period MUST be used as the decimal point marker. Complex numbers should be in the form (a + bi) where "a" and "b" need to have explicitly stated values. For example: {1+1i} is valid whereas {1+i} is not. {0+9i} is valid whereas {9i} is not. If a sample has 25 observations and a 99% confidence estimate for is needed, the appropriate value of the t-multiple required is. Place your answer, rounded to 3 decimal places, in the blank. For example, 3.456 would be an appropriate entry.;Question 6 of 20;1.0 Points;Accepted characters: numbers, decimal;point markers (period or comma), sign indicators (-), spaces (e.g., as;thousands separator, 5 000), "E" or "e" (used in scientific notation). NOTE: For scientific notation, a period MUST be used as the decimal point marker. Complex numbers should be in the form (a + bi) where "a" and "b" need to have explicitly stated values. For example: {1+1i} is valid whereas {1+i} is not. {0+9i} is valid whereas {9i} is not. After;calculating the sample size needed to estimate a population proportion;to within 0.05, you have been told that the maximum allowable error (E);must be reduced to just 0.025. If the original calculation led to a;sample size of 1000, the sample size will now have to be. Place your answer, as a whole number in the blank. For example, 2345 would be a legitimate entry.;Question 7 of 20;1.0 Points;Accepted characters: numbers, decimal;point markers (period or comma), sign indicators (-), spaces (e.g., as;thousands separator, 5 000), "E" or "e" (used in scientific notation). NOTE: For scientific notation, a period MUST be used as the decimal point marker. Complex numbers should be in the form (a + bi) where "a" and "b" need to have explicitly stated values. For example: {1+1i} is valid whereas {1+i} is not. {0+9i} is valid whereas {9i} is not. Assume;50 random samples of the same sample size are taken from a population;and a 90% confidence interval is constructed from each sample. How many;of the intervals would you expect to contain the true population mean?;Answer: Round your answer to a whole number value as necessary.
